A serial roentgencephalometric study utilizing oriented oblique films was undertaken to determine whether pulpotomy of a deciduous mandibular molar affected the eruption pattern of its succedaneous premolar. Twenty-eight children with pulpotomies of their mandibular deciduous molars were studied for a period extending up to 4 years.
When compared with the eruption rate of the normal antimere, the succedaneous premolar beneath the pulpotomized deciduous molar demonstrated a statistically significant tendency to erupt at an accelerated rate. It was also recorded that mandibular premolars and canines did not erupt in symmetrical fashion.
